*In Adventure Bay, Formula was busy visiting Joseph after a bit for a movie night.* 


Joseph: Thanks for taking the time to visit me for movie night, Form. 


Formula: You kidding mate? I don't miss these... what's the movie we're watching though? 


Joseph: “Day of the Vampire King!” 


Formula: Sounds... like a scary choice. 


Joseph: Scary, but fun. Is the popcorn ready yet? 


Formula: Yeah... got the drinks? *He brought a bowl over with an attachment on his bionic paw. Joseph pulls out 4 large 2-liter bottles of soda.* 


Joseph: Got plenty, dude. Hope your belly can handle the fizz though. 


Formula: Hey, a belch wouldn’t hurt. 


Joseph: Your team really helped you loosen up... *He gently rubbed his pups head, picking him up and placing him on the couch.* Would've asked if you could've been like a beanbag, but I feel this movie might be a bad call with the drinks and food. 


Formula: Why? I’m fine. 


Joseph: We'll see bud, just don't say I didn't warn you if you get scared... *He turned off the lights and started the movie. The title appears in red font and the movie zooms in to a castle.* 


Formula: So far so good... nothing scary yet. *The move zooms into a room with a tomb, and it slowly opens. A vampire with blood stains on his lips walks out, his grotesque eyes a sickening yellow.* 


Joseph: Heh, cheesy old movies bud. Nothing to worry about... *He rubbed Formula's head as the pup simply watched, going slowly from confident and fine to scared and nervous as the movie pressed on.* 


*Suddenly, in the film, a the vampire was holding a woman in chains and was walking to her, with his mouth open and his fangs out.* 


Formula: Nope! *He ran outside in a fright, shaking while looking a bit pale.* I-I think I need to lie down... 


Joseph: Told you it was scary! 


Formula: I thought it was cheesy! 


Joseph: It's a remake of the one from the 80's, what did you expect? 


Formula: Uh, Joseph. Would you mind turning around? 


Joseph: Why? *Formula points to a tree.* 


Joseph: What's wrong bud? *He turns a flashlight on, pointing it as a bat flew out and made the two jump.* Whoa! Hey little guy... far away from home, aren't ya? 


Formula: B-Bat! Vampire! I'm out! *He ran off down the street in a panic as Joseph simply watched.* 


Joseph: Eh... he'll be fine by morning, just needs to sleep it off. 


*Back at the Lookout, Formula when inside the front door, into the elevator, up to the second floor, went inside of his room, and dove straight into his bed, shaking and whimpering.* 


Formula: Never trusting bats again... never trusting any bat again... Oh, I’m never gonna sleep now! *Then his door knocked* No! Be gone crazy bats! *He scrambled up, locking the door and barricading it.* You aren't getting me, mate! 


Balloona X: Formula, it’s me! Open the door! 


Formula: L-Loony? *He trembled with fear as he switching on his monitor to the camera outside. Balloona X was standing by the door, worried.* 


Formula: Vampires can't appear on camera... *He sighed, removing his blockade and unlocking the door, looking around nervously.* M-Make it quick please... 


Balloona X: Joseph called about the movie and I wanted to check on you. Are you OK? 


Formula: Oh... yeah, totally. *He gave off a fake smile as he saw a fake bat in the corner, closing the door.* Night, love ya! *Balloona X stops him before he shuts it.* 


Formula: Fine... I'm just afraid a vampire may get me and turn me into one. *He whimpers softly as he laid next to her.* 


Balloona X: Oh Formy... it's ok dear. 


Formula: I don’t think I can sleep tonight. *His stomach rumbles.* And not just because of the movie. 


Balloona X: Let's get you something to eat, and to make you feel better, I'll keep you safe for the night. *She licked his nose once as he blushed.* Don't worry, I know it's three licks on the nose to bring Drift out, but you need help to feel safe. *She takes him to the kitchen and gets him some pup treats.* 


Formula: Do I have to do some tricks? 


Balloona X: Just a few... Bounce! 


Formula: Oh, alright... *He inflated to be twice the size of her, bouncing on his belly as she tossed him a treat.* 


Balloona X: Good boy... Now twirl! 


Formula: Twirl? 


Balloona X: Inflate your butt and spin around! 


Formula: O-Oh... &He blushed deeply, transferring the air fully to his backside before sitting, spinning around as she giggled and tossed him his treat.* 


Balloona X: Good form, Fannymula. Now one more trick, float! 


Formula: Float? But I need helium... 


Balloona X: Or you can be creative. 


Formula: How? 


Balloona X: Here. *She tosses him a modified pup pack.* 


Formula: Huh? *He deflates his butt back down as he looked at it.* What does this do? 


Balloona X: Put it on 


Formula: Ok then? *He put it on as he looked at her.* What's the deal with this? 


Balloona X: This! *she barked* Helium Hose! *The pack on his back opened up the left side as the yellow hose unraveled.* 


Formula: Wait, what?! *The hose popped into his mouth* 


Balloona X: I built a copy of my pup pack in case I'd like to do something different for our fun times together *She rubbed his head, turning the helium hose on with a button push as the hose hissed to life.* Enjoy! You'll get your treat after and I'll add an extra one for every minute you swell, deal? 


Formula: *muffled* Uh... sure? *He felt the helium enter his mouth, cheeks puffing up softly in response. Then his body started to blow up with helium* 


Balloona X: Good puploon... *She licked his puffy cheek, getting the treats ready.* Hehehe so puffy 


Formula: *high pitched and muffled* Hey! 


Balloona X: Sorry, I can't help it *She giggled, rubbing his swelling belly as he floated up.* Such a cute tummy you have when it's puffy. *She giggled again, rubbing his gray belly as it started getting out of her reach.* Ahhhh.... 


Formula: *muffled and high pitched* Hey, that tickles! Stop that! *He flails his paws a bit as she continues after getting on her hind legs.* 


Balloona X: No can do. Have to give back what we missed while Drift was here... 


*A transition with Balloona's tag took them to the next day, where Formula was working in the garage, still floating as a helium filled balloon, three times bigger than a puphouse thanks to his collie.* 


Formula: *high pitched* Loony really owes me for this while I'm tinkering here... *He had his usual bionic paw on the table, working on it with his good paw and the bionic arms from around. Then he feels someone poking his blimpy like trying to do a door knocked on him* Huh? *he looked and sees Balloona X, Skye, and Marshall* 


Balloona X: Hey hun, we came to check on you. 


Skye: She told us what happened last night 


Marshall: Your feeling alright now? 


Formula: high pitched Yeah, a bit... still nervous about bats and such. 


Skye: Hey, relax. We all have a fear. *She pulled him down after grabbing his paw.* I'm scared of eagles, Marshall's afraid of flying... at points. Chase was afraid of the dentist, Rocky... we all know. Rubble's afraid of spiders, and Tracker's afraid of the dark. Even Ryder's afraid of brussel sprouts. 


Formula: *high pitched* What about Everest, Zuma, and you Loony? 


Marshall: I think Zuma is afraid of ghosts and crocodiles, if my memory is correct 


Skye: I'm trying to remember if Everest had one... 


Balloona X: I don't think she has one actually... I know I'm scared of bees due to an incident I had on the first week as a member. I got stung by a bee and it caused me to swell up as an allergy balloon pup with blue, bumpy spots 


Skye: It took two days to get her swelling to go down 


Formula: *high pitched* Yikes... must've been pretty big, right? 


Balloona X: Yep, anyway we got you something to drink 


Formula: *high pitched* Really? 


Balloona X: Mmhm. Thanks for holding him down Skye. *she barked* Claw! *her pack pop out a claw holding a bottle of water* 


Marshall: Always good to remain hydrated... even if you're a helium ball. *He poked the lab's side.* 


Formula: *high pitched* Thanks guys *He softly had the water bottle tipped into his mouth as he drank a bit.* 


Skye: Hey Form... I have a few questions. 


Marshall: I also need a favor... 


Formula: *high pitched* Uh sure, ask away you two 


Skye: What's it like being a balloon? Fun, weird, both? 


Marshall: I wanted to work on some upgrades to Everest's suit... He pulled out a blueprint as both talked over each other a bit. 


Balloona X: Guys guys, one at a time maybe? Skye, you go first *Unfortunately, the two didn't listen, eventually backing up into Balloona and making her arm dump the rest of the water over Formula's bionic paw as all of them stopped.* 


Skye: Oh no! 


Marshall: Not good! 


Balloona X: Definitely not good! *His paw sparked and jittered before springing up and running off, breaking a hole through the door, sprouting wheels from the paw and driving off to Adventure Bay as all four watched on.* 


Formula: *high pitched* Crikey... my paw's gone haywire. I need to catch it and shut it down before it wreaks havoc! *He deflated back down, but due to his lack of paw, he had trouble balancing as he fall on the ground* 


Balloona X: Formy! 


Formula: I'm alright... but I can't walk right without a paw. 


Balloona X: I have an idea, but you're gonna have to stay a balloon for a while... unless you want to use one of the basic paws you have from a while ago. 


Skye: Might be best, but we'll let Ryder know... *She and Marshall left the garage. Ryder was on the main floor level as he was playing his game on his Pup Pad* 


Marshall: Ryder, we got a problem! Formulas paw's gone haywire and is running around Adventure Bay! 


Ryder: Yike, how did that happen? 


Skye: Marshall and I were just asking questions, and we accidentally bumped in Balloona X while she was helping him drinking, spilling water into the exposed bits of his paws circuitry. 


Ryder: Well then, let's see if we can catch that paw. No paw is too haywired, no pup is too small! *He stopped his game, pulling out the extension and pressing the button as all of the pups tags lit up.* Paw Patrol, to the Lookout! 


All Pups: Ryder needs us! 


*All six of the usual pups arrived at the elevator, looking confused.* 


Rocky: Where are Formula and Balloona X? 


Skye: They should be here shortly... *From outside, Balloona X bounced in at the size of a puphouse with Formula wrapped around her body.* 


Balloona X: Incoming! *she bounced in the elevator on time, but she pinned the other six pups underneath her belly* 


Formula: Least we're all together... 


Balloona X: Sorry bout that pups... Didn't mean to pin you all down 


Marshall: Could've been worse... could've been after you had that gum when squishing Humdinger and his kittens. 


Balloona X: Hehehe yea, because that might be a stinkier problem there 


Formula: Oh yeah... *The elevator closed up as the team crawled out from under the collie to their tag, having it glow as the rest had their outfits on and going up into the control center. The door opened where they all leapt out and lined up.* 


Chase: Paw Patrol, ready for action, Ryder sir! *then Formula tip over to his left* 


Formula: Well almost... 


Balloona X: Hang on. *She went to his left side, squishing him slightly between her body and Skye's.* 


Formula: Sorry bout that. 


Balloona X: It's ok, Formy 


Skye: Yeah, it's fine. Once we get that paw back, you'll be fine. 


Ryder: Speaking of which... *He presses the button on his pad, lowering the screen down.* We'll have to find a way to catch that bionic paw before it causes too much trouble in Adventure Bay or escapes elsewhere. For this mission, I need Balloona X and Chase *he select on two tags* I need you two to block off all exits and try to catch that paw as you can 


Chase: Cool, I can use my special feature in my Overinflated Mode... Chase is on the case! 


Balloona X: Time to bounce into action! 


Ryder: I'm also going to need Rocky and Formula. He selected the next two tags. I'm going to need you two to shut that paw down when we do catch it. 


Rocky: Green means go! 


Formula: I'm tuned up and tuned in! 


Ryder: The rest of you pups can fan out to also help with the search. That paw could be anywhere and we'll have a lot of ground to cover. Alright, Paw Patrol is on the roll! *All of the pups howled as Ryder went down his pole to the garage. Balloona X rolled over to the slide, going first in her usual roll down as Chase followed her in his perfect posture slide. Balloona X reached the bottom, bouncing down and rolling into her house, changing her puphouse to its tanker truck mode before driving off. Chase arrived at the bottom next, landing on his puphouse as it changed to his police cruiser before driving off. The garage door opened as Ryder jumped on his ATV as he drive off along with all 8 pups in their vehicle. The entire team drove over to the area near town hall.* Ok pups, spread out and try to find that paw 


All pups: Right away! 


Ryder: Chase, set some road blocks around Adventure Bay, so we can keep the paw here long enough to catch it 


Chase: I'm on it, Ryder sir! *he drive off so he can set up some road blocks* 


Ryder: Skye, you take to the air and relay info on where that paw is heading when you find it. 


Skye: You got it. This pup's gonna fly! *She flew off in her helicopter to get a higher viewpoint.* 


Ryder: The rest of you pups, spread out and start searching. 


All Pups: Right *All of the pups began spreading out to search around. While they were searching around, Alex was busy playing around when Formula’s paw skidded to a stop nearby.* 


Alex: Huh? *he look and see Formula's paw* A paw? *The paw hopped over, a minor scanner scanning him to show the info, glowing green as it hopped over again.* What are you doing? 


???: I came to hang with you, Alex. 


Alex: Wait, you can talk!? 


???: I can now. I do have Formula’s info after all. Consider it sort of like a... self-aware system. 


Alex: Wait, Formula? Now I remember... you have to be Formula's robotic paw 


???: Indeed I am. 


Alex: Shouldn't you be with Formula? 


???: I should, yes, but... water’s gotten into my system and most importantly, my cooperation system, so I won’t listen to him or the team. 


Alex: Oh dear, maybe I can take you to them *she reaches for the paw* 


???: Oy! I’m not going back to them without having fun and helping others! *Behind the paw, Zuma pulled up.* 


Zuma: There you are! 


Alex: Want this paw back? 


???: I have a name you know. 


Alex: Oh sorry, Mister.... 


Zuma: Wait, you can talk!? 


???: Everyone now just discovers the genius of moi, Digit, and tries to bring me back? *He hopped over onto Zuma’s hovercraft and shifting it into full speed forward before hoping off.* See ya, Zooma! 


Zuma: I’ll get you for thissssss! *The hovercraft takes off, sending him speeding towards a fruit cart.* 


Digit: Well, moving on. Later Alex! *His wheels popped out as he sped off, the lab popping out with a collage of fruit on his head like some dancers.* 


Zuma: Ugh... Ryder better hear this... *He activates his collar and calls Ryder.* Ryder, the paw is on the move! It’s heading out of Alex’s neighborhood and is heading back into town! 


Ryder: Understood... *Calls every pup.* Everyone, head to Alex’s street! It’s where the paw is! And be careful! 


All Pups: Got it, Ryder! 


*All of the pups that were searching began flocking there. Meanwhile, Digit made his way to the train station, looking over the tracks.* 


Digit: Hmm, some of the rails look old. Better replace them quick. But the question is, how? *The paw looked around, seeing some parts as an idea brought it to move, only to have Rubble catch it in his front bulldozer.* 


Rubble: You're not fixing anything. 


Digit: Oh Rubble, when will you learn... *The paw hops up onto the bucket, kicking one of the hydraulic lines and causing the bucket to lift the treads off the ground.* The bigger they are, the easier they'll get stranded. 


Rubble: Huh? 


Digit: Later... *He hopped out as the bulldozer couldn't move due to the bucket being broken.* 


Rubble: What the!? 


Digit: Take a look... *The paw hopped onto the busted hydraulic pipe as it was leaking fluid out.* Adios though, muchacho. 


Rubble: Uh oh... *He called Ryder. Ryder, minor problem. Form's paw broke my rig and is leaving the train station.* 


Ryder: Oh dear, that paw is smarter than it look 


Rubble: It is Formula's paw after all... 


Ryder: Then we need Formula's weakness to get that paw 


Rubble: Try to pin it down? 


Ryder: We'll try... As he looked up, Digit jumped onto the handlebars. 


Digit: Nice ride... *He grabbed the brake bar, causing the ATV to spin out as he hopped off.* I'd give that a 3.7 out of 10 on that donut spin. 


Ryder: Really? You could have hurt me 


Digit: Formula's the one who's the safety freak, not me. *His scanner picked up Skye from above.* 


Skye: Fun's over, bio-paw! 


Digit: It's Digit, and as for you... *He jumped up, yanking her tag.* You're grounded! *Then her vest started to blow up like a big balloon* 


Skye: Hey! 


Digit: Whoops... *He let go as she had a harder time flying due to her airbag offsetting her wings.* If you excuse me... I've got to help someone else out now, toodles! *He sped off again as Formula arrived.* 


Formula: Freeze Digit! You've gone too far, mate. 


Digit: Aww... the big brainiac and my creator, nice to see you. Glad to see you brought that vampire with you. 


Formula: What!? *He tried to run, but only ended up falling over as his bionic paw laughed at him and ran off.* I'm so deactivating him when I get him back... 


*As Ryder helped Formula up, Digit made his way to the city hall, looking around before something peeked his interest.* 


Digit: Well, that's not good. The roof top on the wishing well's been removed. *He scuttled over to it, hopping onto the stone edge to look.* Who could've done this though? Humdinger most likely... well, looks like I need to fix this well before it might rain later... 


Rocky: You said it! *He pushed Digit into the well as Balloona X dropped over the hole, inflating to make it hard for him to escape.* 


Balloona X: Game over, it's time for Formula to get over here and fix you! *then she started to feel something on her belly* Oh? Hehehe... Hehehehe... 


Rocky: What's so funny? 


Balloona X: I... Hehehe, don't know... Hehehehe *An x-ray shot from underneath the well showed Digit on her belly with a modified baseplate to enhance his rubbing motion, tickling her belly.* 


Digit: Game is not over until I say so, tubby. *He tickled her so much, she began laughing herself loose and rolling onto Rocky and both rolled off as Digit crawled out.* Hmph... these pups are annoying me now... I have to help others out. But who exactly... *His scanner picked up a signal with Katie.* Ooh... perfect. *While he went off to find her, a transition with the pups usual tag brought them to the park, where each pup had the remnants to their encounter with Digit.* 


Ryder: So... we've been fruited, pinned, spun around, airbags deployed, scared, tickled, and even flattened. Anything on you, Chase and Marshall? 


Chase: He did hop onto my hat, pushing it over my eyes... 


Marshall: And he tripped me up on a puddle of soapy water. 


Balloona X: How can we catch that paw? 


Skye: No clue honestly... *She wobbled a bit, her wings still deployed as a shadow cast down onto the ground looking like a bat, causing Formula to jump in fear.* 


Formula: Keep it away! No vampires! 


Balloona X: Vampire... wait, Formula. On your paw, it have all your data including your fear, right? 


Formula: Y-Yeah... he even used it against me to make me fall over. 


Balloona X: But on him, since he has your fear, can he have the same reaction to it too? 


Formula: If you catch him off guard, yes. 


Balloona X: I think I got a idea... but I need Rocky, Chase, and you Formy 


Chase: On it. 


Rocky: Sure thing. 


Formula: Gladly, Loon. 


Balloona X: However... I need you to go find Digit, this plan is... secret. 


Formula: Why? 


Balloona X: Just trust me, ok? It won't work if you see it. 


Formula: Ok then, but I need a pup to carry me around... 


Marshall: I'll help you out. *He went over to the mechanic pup.* 


Formula: How exactly? 


Marshall: Just put your nub on my back, I'll carry you... it be like I'm your backup paw 


Formula: Got it. *He lifted his pawless leg up, slipping it under Marshall's pack belt for better support.* Now let's find Digit! 


Marshall: Where could he be heading though? 


Formula: I don't know... let just find him... 


*While the two left, the collie brought the police and recycling pups over.* 


Rocky: Ok, your plan? 


Balloona X: Let's just say... the paw will run back to it's owner... 


*A transition with Balloona's tag brought them over to an empty house lot, where Rocky was busy painting some cardboard and Balloona X's belly.* 


Chase: We sure this will work? 


Balloona X: Hehehe... trust me, Chase. Hehehe... it will work 


Chase: Alright... we set then? 


Rocky: Mmhm, just about. *He set the paintbrush down.* Alright Loony, do your thing... 


Balloona X: Hehehe, good because I've had enough tickles for one day 


Rocky: Well, unless Formy has one more for you. Do your thing though you two... *He looked up, seeing two round shadows loom over him.* Perfect... let’s go. 


*One of the shadows began bouncing off, while back with Digit, he was closing in on Katie’s Pet Parlor.* 


Digit: Katie could really use my help with the pets and such. 


Formula: The only thing that really needs your help is me! 


Digit: Huh? *He spun around, seeing the two pups.* Oh... you... 


Formula: You know you're a part of me. I made you, remember? 


Digit: I was a part of you... now that I’m free, I can be my own being. 


Formula: No you can't. I need you and you need me! *he get off of Marshall and jump to Digit* 


Digit: You are a desperate pup... *A hatch opened up in the back as a rope came out, tying up Formula’s legs.* And frankly, it’s a bit sad how easy you can be beaten. *As Digit laughed at the tied up pup, Marshall simply sighed before feeling a shadow looming over him, looking up before moving aside.* Well, you have fun... I have to help Katie. 


Formula: No you won't *He inflated himself abit so his limbs can spread out and break the rope apart, then he deflate back down* 


Digit: Yeah, I will. *He hopped over to Formula, letting out a bionic snarl as the shadow softly dwarfed the two.* Huh? I don't remember the weather giving us rain this early today... 


Formula: What gives? *The two turned to look at the shadow over them.* Oh dear, that's a.... 


Digit: Big... Bat... *The bionic paw shook a bit while Formula turned white in fright, seeing a very big, very convincing vampire bat on a blue surface, not knowing it was painted on the blue belly of Balloona X, who inflated herself extra big to make it stretch.* 


Balloona X: Blah blah blah! Formula and Digit, I came for you two today! Blah blah blah! 


IT KNOWS OUR NAMES! 


Digit: Normally, I don't work with you anymore, but this one is very important! *He quickly attached himself back on Formula as both ran off, looking like he were trying to beat a lightning strike to a clock tower.* 


Marshall: That... was a bit mean, don't you think? 


Balloona X: I had to keep him out so it'd be a scared reaction. I'm gonna have to cuddle with him for a month to get him to calm down... *She deflated back down to her normal size.* Help me get the paint off my belly. 


Marshall: Sure thing *he barked* Water cannon! *His water cannon came out, and while he helped Balloona clean up, Formula and Digit were looking around.* 


Formula: Need to hide, need to hide! 


Digit: Let's got to Joey's house then! 


Formula: Are you nuts?! That's the first place it'll look! 


Digit: Right, right, fair point... 


Formula: Oh man, oh man... 


Digit: Go in that house! *His scanner formed a digital arrow, pointing to the house nearby.* 


Formula: Good plan! *He ran to it, going through the door and inside. Both of them are gasping for air.* I think... we're save 


Digit: I... hope... 


Formula: Why do you need air? You're not even a real being! 


Digit: Oh right, btw... why does this room look familiar? 


Formula: Huh? *He inhaled softly to calm down, looking around.* Isn't this... Chase's jail cell suit? 


Digit: Wait? Jail Cell!? 


Digit: Oh no! I'm out! *He started loosening himself from Formula as Chase barked.* 


Chase: Capture! *The bars closed with a smaller set of gaps to them as Digit got off, unable to escape.* 


Digit: No! You can't do this to me! *While he was trying to escape, Formula came up from behind, opening a back panel to pull out his waterlogged circuit board as the last bits of water trickled out of the paw and shut Digit down.* 


Formula: Sorry mate... you're deactivated from paw duty. 


Chase: Way to go, Formula 


Formula: Chase, truth... Balloona X was the big vampire bat, wasn't she? 


Chase: She needed genuine fear from both of you. 


Formula: *sighs* She is so owing me big time, really big 


Chase: Yeah... want me to bounce you back to the Lookout though or let you out now or... what? 


Formula: Bounce me back. I need to rewrite my paw when we get back. 


Chase: Sure thing. Hang tight. *Chase bounces along to the Lookout, with Formula in the cell.* 


Formula: Little hard in this space... 


Chase: Well, try to. Skye had fun with it. *He began bouncing up and down to gather height and momentum before beginning to bounce back to the Lookout. Later, inside of his room, Formula was rewriting his damaged paw.* 


Formula: Let's see... board's dry again. Digit should be more cooperative now. *He hooked up the chip to a computer, a green digital pup materializing there.* 


Digit: Oh hey Form, why am I back here? 


Formula: You got a bit wet and I'm keeping you in here till I work the kinks out of the system. I'll figure out someway to make you helpful to the team, but today isn't it. 


Digit: I understand. Thank you for the second chance, bud. 


Form: No prob. You rest easy though man... *He unplugged the chip when the download was ready, shutting off the monitor and going back to work. Meanwhile, Balloona X was in the bathroom, cleaning off the rest of the paint from her fur.* 


Balloona X: Come on, get off... 


Zuma: Not even Marshall's cannon cleaned that off, dude? 


Balloona X: Remind me next time to wear a disposable suit... 


Marshall: Noted. 


Rocky: Maybe Formula's got a paint remover gizmo on him. 


Balloona X: I think we should leave him alone until he can walk again.*talk to herself* And give him some time to calm down 


Rocky: Chase did say he was fine, but you should give him a confidence boost about if he sees vampires in his dreams. 


Balloona X: I think he’s not going to be happy that I dressed as one though. 


Marshall: You better just talk to him though sooner rather than later. Clear the air and such. 


Balloona X: Alright... *She went upstairs to his room, knocking on the door as the camera looked at her.* 


Formula: What is it Loony? 


Balloona X: I just wanted to talk and apologize, Formula. Please let me in. 


Formula: Hang on... *He reached over to press a button, opening the door.* Enter. 


Balloona X: Alright *she walk in the room* 


Formula: Still got paint on your tum as well, huh? 


Balloona X: Uh... yeah... about that... 


Formula: Why’d you do it, Loona? 


Balloona X: I need you to be legit scared. If I told you my plan, Digit would look at you and see you wouldn't act as scared. So... I had to keep it a secret, and I do regret it a bit. 


Formula: *sighs* You know the vampires in my nightmares are going to look like you for a month, right? 


Balloona X: I know, but I know you can fight them by showing them you're the bigger pup. *She licked his cheek.* Especially since you and Digit work well together. 


Formula: *sigh* Well... I guess so... 


Balloona X: C'mon... I know you have that new gadget as well you haven't implemented yet. *She pointed over to an air hose file he has on the computer.* It might not be here, but in dream land, it can be... and it can be a vital gadget. 


Formula: I don't know... 


Balloona X: Think of it like this... dreams can be altered with your head. With me around... I'll make sure you're safe hun. Those big, bad bats won't bite you on my watch in reality. 


Formula: You think so? 


Balloona X: I know so. *She kissed his cheek, cuddling next to him.* I don't like seeing you scared hun... 


Formula: *sighs* I’ll do it... for you Loona... 


Balloona X: Good. I will say... seeing you scared wasn't the only part I regret on my plan... *She pointed down to the bat still on her belly.* 


Formula: Hang on, I can fix that. *he look through his gears and stuff* 


Balloona X: Ok then... *She watched him dig around until he pulled out a squirt bottle full of an orange liquid.* Huh? 


Formula: Quick solution I made to remove tough stains. Oil, grease, paints, etc... *He spritzed a bit onto her belly, waiting as it turned to a white foam before wiping it off to show her belly being clean.* There we go. Perfectly blue again. 


Balloona X: Thank you, and I know I owe you big time for that scare... 


Formula: Mmhm, you sure do. *He set the bottle down, reattaching his paw after a fair bit.* Next time, I'm making sure Digit's circuits won't get soaked, but I need a better object for him... 


Balloona X: Like what? 


Formula: No idea yet... contemplating changing him up a bit, see what works best... 


Balloona X: Hmm, I see... well, let's get you rested a bit. Bet you're tired a bit. 


Formula: Yeah... *He set his tools down, following Balloona X out of his room as a transition with the pups usual logo cut to them all playing outside.* 


Skye: Some day, huh boys? 


All boy pups: Yep 


Chase: Say... where are Balloona X and Formula? 


Marshall: I think they're still inside. 


Rocky: Should we check on them? 


Skye: I can go check on them if you want. 


Chase: I'll come with you. It's best we do it in couple way since Balloona X trust you and Formula trust me 


Marshall: Have fun... He sighed quietly. 


Chase: Don't worry bud, your husky will be by your side soon. *He gently patted the dalmatian's back.* 


Marshall: I know... it's just hard for me since we're so far away. 


Chase: We know, but you'll see her again soon. For now, just relax and have a little fun. 


Marshall: Alright... *Then Chase and Skye head inside the Lookout. As they entered, they walked to the living room, and see Balloona X and Formula sleeping on the floor, snuggling.* 


Skye: Awwww 


Chase: They seem to have a good idea for naps figured out... 


Skye: Looks really comfy as well. *But as they stood, something funky crept through the air.* 


Chase: Ugh! Is that garlic?! 


Skye: Yikes! Let's go for now! *The two left as the inflatable couple slept calmly together. A ripple transition though saw Formula walking through a dark castle, looking around.* 


Formula: Odd place... odd and spooky. *Balloona X walked up behind him, wearing a garlic necklace.* 


Balloona X: Feels like something out of a horror movie. 


Formula: Oh yeah... Behind them, three shadows arose. *They slowly creeped up to the unsuspecting duo...* 


Digit: I'm detecting lifeforms... behind us. 


Formula and Balloona X: What?! *The two turned around and saw the figures, who revealed themselves as vampires!* 


Formula: Yikes! *Balloona X rips off a bulb of garlic from her necklace and throws it. One of the vampire pups with their mouth opened ended up swallowing it, starting to swell up from it.* 


Balloona X: Eat that, fangy! *The next vampire lunged at Balloona X and tackled her to the ground.* 


Formula: Oy! Nobody messes with my collie! *He tapped his paw, bringing out that air hose feature, firing it into the mouth of the beast.* Hope you like being a balloon! *The vampire quickly ballooned up, joining the one that ate the garlic as the two pups ran off.* 


Balloona X: Where'd the other one go!? 


Formula: No clue yet... Digit, keep a monitor out for us. *He retracted the hose back after a bit, arriving back at the front door.* 


Balloona X: Well, how are you feeling now, baby? 


Formula: Better, honestly... *As they both left, the third vampire pup jumped from the building, covered Formula with his cowl.* 


Balloona X:. FORMY! Oh that's it! *She takes a bulb of garlic from her necklace and eats it. Before she finished though, the cowl quickly pushed back to show the fangs in Formula, but he was a big balloon, only to have the air transfer to the vampire as Formula removed him, sending him flying away.* 


Formula: Someone went on a light diet... *As the monster floated away, the two pups watched as he floated away.* 


Balloona X: Are you OK, Formy? 


Formula: He nicked me a bit, but not enough to vampire me up. 


Balloona X: Oh Formy... *She nuzzled his head outside the castle, but the ripple effect brought them back to the Lookout, showing it was all just a dream.* 


Marshall: Hmm... wonder what they're dreaming? *As he walked out, he walked into a set of garlic, ending up coming out with the scent.* Woo! That stuff is strong! 


Rubble: Smells good though. *All of the awake pups shared a laugh outside as a bat on the tree flew off for a better place to sleep.*
